In the spotlight ✨ @cosenza.giulia x @a.__gallery Open House this Thursday-Saturday, 10:00-14:00 Oude Delft 37, 2611BB Delft

Later this week we open the studio and @a.__gallery for another Open House • ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ For this edition, entitled ‘Form follows Matter’, we bring together several artists who share a common thread in the creative process - an affinity with materiality and form; who allow medium and matter to direct the creative process. The result of their efforts directly influenced by the medium with which they chose to create. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Rotterdam based ceramicist Giulia Cosenza launches her beautiful ‘Terre’ collection alongside new work of Aliyah Sadaf, and resident artisan Iris Rozendaal presents her most recent collection of vessels entitled ‘Female Form’. We have new work from abstract contemporary artist Jolanda Wassenaar that explores tactility through multiple mediums and Joris-Jan Bos shares new pieces that highlight variations in clay and custom developed glazes. The remaining pieces in our Rob van Hemert archive of limited edition architectural wall sculptures will be on show for this edition too. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Hop over to @a.__gallery to read and see more about this edition, and how to combine your visit to Delft with a lovely lunch, coffee or local museum exhibition! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Looking forward to welcoming you back into our space from Thursday 7 to Saturday 9 September between 10:00 and 14:00!

Beech House, Belgium • Avenue Design Studio ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Built in 1875 by Belgian architect Pieter Joseph Taeymans as a summer residence the property lies on a grassy plot surrounded by a forest of mature beech trees, just outside of Antwerp. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Preservation of the property’s authentic details informed many of our design choices, starting with French flagstones on the ground floor, and continuing to the use of materials throughout that pay homage to the property’s underlying material palette. An array of custom, artisan and iconic decorative elements, including a minimally designed daybed that looks out onto the beautiful gardens, subtly mirror the scalloped detailing seen throughout the property. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ A selection of vintage furniture pieces across various periods in design history contribute to a sense of nostalgia and tension between the historical and contemporary, such as a pair of Scarpa 'Dialogo' dining chairs and modernist floor lamp by Sergio Mazza & Giuliana Gramigna from the 70s•

#avenueprojectBeechHouse • Proudly presenting this beautiful, period property today in all of her glory. A project we have had the privilege of being involved with for the past year (or so!) alongside the most trusting and wonderful clients Kate and Arthur. Working with period homes is truly rewarding, and our approach is, above all, to celebrate the passage of time whilst looking towards the future. It is the art of restraint, knowing where to start and where to stop. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Beech House has always been, for us and our wonderful clients, about the past. The lives lived and the stories told. The authenticity, the architecture and the physical context. We have drawn upon all of these factors at every stage in the interior design process, always looking towards what was there before adding or subtracting anything. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I hope you feel, when you browse the imagery of our latest piece of work, our beloved Beech House, that we have honoured this narrative in our design process. We hope you love her as much as we all have. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There’s a link to the full tour on our profile page and via the stories highlight ‘Beech House’ so you can go back to the beginning and follow the design process. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ With thanks to the following team of individuals who have helped bring Beech House to life: Our clients @katedavison and Arthur • @albabruynel and @simona_stara_id for your technical and creative work in the studio during the design process and @hyggestyling for your assistance during installation and shoot day • Our vintage partners and artists whose pieces have elevated this home @fundamente___ @studiocadmium @studio.alium @augustf.fth @geraldine_kol @harveybouterse @jorisjanbos @paulcoenen @verellenfurniture
